The ADVANTAGES OF Reserve,

Nothing is SO unnatural or so full Of
lar compauionship with people who
are only known under the condi IONS
of what is called society" conditions
which imply mutual complaisance up
to a certain point very easily reached,
conventional ease of manner, courteous
frankneSS OF speech which need no. be
very deep. superficial mutual inte.li-
gence which seldom knows how far it
penetrates-though it enjoys the evil
dence Of having penetrated further
than was eXpected-and alacrity in
discerning and complying with the
wishes of Others. The danger consists
in the facility with which companion
ship of tins kind is mistaken for true
intimacy. though it does not really
imply anything approaching to it. A
woman Will sometimes marry a man
of whom she knows nothing at all ex-
cept that she has found it pleasant to
be tlattercd and admired by him during
a companionship Of this superficial
kind. In other words, she will trust
her life to the keeping Of a man Of
whose aims. of whose standard of right
and wrong, of whose power and habit
OF living up TO that standard she knows
just rs much and just as little as she does
Of the actors, whom she has seen on the
stage, though She is deceived into think
ing that she knows more, only because
she happens in this case to have been
one of the actors, and not merely a
passive spectator. Society is, indeed. a
sort of expedient for rubbing off the
natural and wholesome reserves which
keep people from trusting ea"h other
till they have had real etneri nee Of
what each is made of-till they have
seen what are the objects of reverence,
what is the depth Of reverence; what
is the force OF practical fidelity to the
higher aims that determine the true
character working behind the familiar
forms and faces Of so-callcd society.
The surface Of the sea on a calm and
sunny day is as little Of an index to the
dangers which the sea may cause. as
the familiar name of mere society to
the deeper influences which those who
mlngIe in that society can exert. 1t
would be as wise to drink the deadly
juices OF the b%clladonna because Of the
beauty Of the magistrates flowers. as
to welcome intimacy with many Of
those whose tanners in general society
are faultleSs and fascinating, without
knowing anything OF them beyond
those manners.

The Cricket Match.

This afternoon the Los Angeles
cricket club will play its first match

place at the Sixth street base ball
grounds and wickets will be pitched
so as to permit the first "over" to be
called by o'clock. There will be no
admission fee and all those who have
never seen a cricket match and feel
interested in the national game of
England will be assured of good en-
tertainment and cordial reception by
attending at the grounds. The follow

FROM THE CITY TO BALLONA.
Rapid March of Suburban I'm.
nrOmcnt.


After the excursion train, which left
this city on Monday morning over the
A. T. and S. +. Ballona road, then
lust completed, had got well under
way, the hundreds of distinguished
citizens who made up the party were
kept busily employed in noting the
splending progress recently made in
the entire section to the south and
west of the city. Everywhere the
same busy scene greeted the eye and
elected the utmost surprise even from
amongthose who supposed themselves
familiar with the daily progress of i'm
provement.
The new town of Nadeau Park, re-
Gently laid out right at the Junction
of the A. T. and S. F. and Southern
Pacific, especially attracted the atten-
ton of all present and the universal
prophesy was made, that its COM
manding situation together with the
interest of the railroad people in build
ing it up and the liberality of its pro-
jectors in putting in SO many valuable
and costly improvements, would make
it the most important railroad point
near Los Angeles and that its future
will be one of solid prosperity and
rapid growth.
The whole country, clear to the
coast has assumed new life and vigor
and has evidently found the appreci-
alton its fertility and beauty has so
long merited.

Terrace the Hills.

In view of the increasing value OF
our land the system of terrace culture
that has stood the test of thousand
years of use should be adopted here.
1t utilizes the now waste lands, and,
what is of infinitely more importance,
saves the water that annually is wasted
or worse than wasted by running off
to the ocean during heavy rains, carry
ing with it millions Of dollars worth of
valuable fertilizers. These terraces
generally should be about eight feet
wide, and run around the hills and
mountains, descending slightly from
the north to the south sides. The
descent should be one half inch to the
rod; this will prevent securing and
take the moisture from the northern
slopes, where it is not needed, around
to the southern slopes, where the
evaporation is greater. The terraces
should be the lowest on the back side,
or the side next the hill, to form a
ditch or drain. By this means the
steepest mountain sides can be made
valuable. +. NJ. SHAW.

A Pleasant Ca mping Party.

While the grapes are ripening and
the plow waiting for winter use after
the harvest has been done, certain
set of the old Los Angeles families,
whose hospitality is greater than the
meaning OF the word, have their yearly
encampments. Among those who rest
near the seashore and amid the protect
ing branches of the oak, are the well
known Dominguez and Carson fami-
lies. They are at present camping
near the Salt Works, where they are
having a most enjoyable time. Dane
ing, singing, boating, fishing and
hunting are the amusements andrecre-
ations which are INDUCED in for a
couple of months. Among those who
are present at the encampment this
year are George Carson, M. G.. Carson,
J. j. Carson, Il. L. Carson, Joseph

Newspapers in the Country.

Geo. L. Rowell x Co., of New York, in
the nineteenth annual edition of their
standard publication, the american News
paper Directory, say
The new volume contains an exhaustive
list of oil Class Publications, so admirably
arranged that a. one of the three thousand
papers represented there can be readily re-
ferred to and al important facts concern
ing it, together with its circulation rating,
easily obtained
The Newspaper Directory" will be used
principally 10y publishers, advertisers and
advertising agents, but the vast fund OF
information ii contains makes ii valuable
to persons of almost every trade and pro-
fession. AS n gazetteer alone it is we'll
worth the price charged, s., for it fully de-
scribes every town III which a newspaper
is issued, and few people care to know
about any place whore one Is not.
The number of papers published in the
United States, Territories Including Alas
ka) and Canada is put at IL, APO; an increase
of 5Sl in one year.
The growth of newspapers in some Of
the Western States would be a matter of
wonder if it We're not that this year is no
exception to the rule. In Kansas the in
crease is 80 anfin Nebraska GA, while the
Keystone State shows smaller advance
of 30, and the Buckeye State of 30. Penn
sylvania exhibits the largest increase in
dailies, II; Kansas in weeklies, 81; and
New York in monthlies, AZ. Seven States
show decrease, the most prominent in
stances being New Hampshire and Vir-
ginia, six each. The whole volume shows
that great care has been taken 10 sustain
its reputation as the most comprehensive
work of the kind yet published, and 10 in
sure accuracy in every detail. Anything
less than a complete compendium of
American newspapers and periodicals
would surprise those who are familiar
with the former efforts of this firm, who
are so we'll known as the eldest, largest,
and best known of all the American ad-
yertsinp agencies.

He Was n Noble Liar

Not long after I had assumed the
duties of my Office, as l sat at my desk,
big with dignity, caller entered, q
tall. gaunt man with a tremendous wen
at the side of his eye that viewed in
profile irresistibly suggested, in con-
nection with his hooked nose, the door
knockers on the English houses, writes
an American Consul to the New York
Times. He ambled in with easy con-
fidence, buried my hand in his big
bony palm, and, pointing to his faded
army blouse, nonchalantly remarked,
as he sat down, that a WORKOUT old
soldier like himself was mighty glad to
see an American once more. "Ah," said
he, IL was all through tho war fought
in seventeen battles, and was twice
wounded. once here" pointing to where
a well-regulated man usually keeps his
liver "and once in the Leg" And he
warmed up to his theme and graphically
described some of the engagements IN
which he had participated "Sir,"
said /, when l finally got in word,
"you are q noble fellow. Perhaps you
are hard up. Forgive me if L am rude,
but few shillings may be of use to
you" He accepted the proffered gift
with delicate hesitation and departed.
Fifteen years after he came again.
There was no installing him. L knew
the wen. But as had no wen he did
not remember me. By this time L was
wise and hard and incredulous, and L
observed with satisfaction certain in
directness in his talk, as though feel
inc kis Wav "You ware narbaps II,

Yes, said he slowly and hesitatingly.
1t flashed upon me that Cleveland hav-
ing been elected, several Southern
Consuls had been appointed. and that
the old chap was waiting for his cue.
He should have it. II hope you were
from the South. "Ah"-this with en-
thusiasm-"indeed / was With Lee

ties, wounded twice" (here he pointed to
his heart and his ARM, was in the ter
rible charge of Picketts at Gettysburg,
and was close by Gen. Garrett when he
was killed" For half an hour did he
pour out his minute recollect ons, and
each moment my admiration grew.
"Sir," said /, when at last he stopped
for lack of wind, you are a noble liar.

Mr.. Winans, Artistic Garden.

The visitor to Baltimore who takes a
Red Line car and rides out Baltimore
street as far as Fremont will observe
q large square inclosed by high wall,
ever the top of which appears the man
sard roof of palatial residence. On
inquiry he will find that this is the
property of AIr. Ross Winans, the son
of Thomas Winans, and very r.dicu-
lous story is connected with the build
ing OF this double-story, gloomy and
forbidding wall around square of the
loveliest and most artistic garden In
the United States.
Many years ago, when Thomas Win
ans constructed this elegant residence,
he took special pains to surround it
with handsome grounds, importing Eu-
ropean gardeners for the work and rare
plants for the sthetically constructed
beds. Cool and airy Chinese pagodas.
Turkish mosques, and other quaint
forms of architecture were used for the
summer-houses, while fantastic glass
structures, filled with beautiful tropi-
cal plants of gorgeous foliage, abound
ed on every hand. Amid al these fan
ciful ornaments Mr.. Winans, who was
lover of art, had casts made from the
most celebrated classic statues, such as
the various Venuses, Psyche, Clytie,
Ceres, and others of a graver kind,
placed in the most commanding posi-
tions. A low iron fence inclosed the
grounds, it being the intention of Mr..
Winans to make his garden an object
of delight to his fellow citizens, and to
throw it open to the public on certain
days. At that time there were many
people who did not look upon the nude
in art with the same federation that all
exercise to-day, and certain element
of the population were exceedingly
Mortified by the innocent statues.
They got up petition to the city coun-
Gil, praying the authorities to have
them removed or forbidden. OF course
the council took no action, but Mr.
Ninans, who was very sensitive, took
otfense at this reception of his liberal
ity, and built the towering wall around
his artistic grounds. Few have ever
been admitted within the guarded pre-
cincts, and the most marvellous stories
are told in the neighborhood as to it's
contents. 1t was here that in his later
days Mr.. Winans had his great organ
put up-one of the largest organs in
the country-which he occasionally
hired some professional musician to
play on for his exclusive amusement -

Influence OF the Press.

well-known Cincinnati lawyer, says the
Enquirer, was speaking to n friend from
New York concerning the great activity in
prosecuting criminals in the metropolis now
and the great number of convictions Sc
cured. He cited the cases of the Italian
woman, Mrs. Cignarale, recently sentenced
to death for the murder of her husband
the man Reade, now under sentence fol
killing his wife; Greenwell, the Brooklyn
man, convicted on circumstantial evidence
of killing Lyman ID. Weeks, while burglar
izing his house, and the evident intention
to make il warm for Jacob Sharp.
How comes all this? What caused the
spasm of reform?"
"The newspapers" said the New York
man. The newspapers. do it all in New
York now. They accuse men. try them
and convict them. Juries are afraid OF
them. think the papers are doing prett J
good work, too"

A Turkish Newspaper.

Among the various innovations lately in
troduced into Turkey may be included that
of newspapers.
The first, if we are not mistaken, APP
peared in Constantinople in 1871, under
the auspices of Mr.. Oscanyan, the former
Turkish Consul General in New York,
and was called Aztardr Bisdntian, or the
byzantine Advertiser. The people, I'M
acquainted at that time with the aim and
importance of daily chronicler, were not
prepared to appreciate the value OF a
newspaper, and were slow to patroniZe the
paper. 1t was obliged to stop. Since then
more frequent intercourse with the rest OF
Europe and political incidents which made
the people eager Tor news gave rise to the
publication of other newspapers, whose
number is now legion.
There are at present more than twenty diff
ferent dailies and twenty weeklies appearing
ia Constantinople in various dialects, each
advocating it's own particular interest.
Among the organs of the differeI. nation
alities in Turkey may be mentioned the
Akhtar (Starl, which represents the Per-
sian interest in Turkey. II is printed in
Turkish script, though the language Is
Persian. 1t commences at the right hand
corner of the sheet with the announce
ment that "the Office of publication of the
AhfttuT III Nhliuc huhn thC bCtN VI
felicity (Constantinople). All communica-
tiens must be addressed to Mehmed Tehir
Effendi, sole editor and propr etor."
In imitation Of French journals, the
paper commences with an editorial on the
affairs of Siam as q leader, followed by
telegraphic news, both foreign and domes-
tic, extracts from foreign papers, home
news, current events, official promotions,
and n few advertisements These papers
are sold at An average of four cents per
copy, and an edition of 1000 is considered
a large circulation.
There being strict surveillance over all
publications by the government, the editors
are restrained from indulging in liberal
thoughts and observations, as we'll as on
what news they publish, SO that these
prints are, as matter of course, vapid and
devoid CT interest, and can not in any
sense be called newspapers. "-New York
Graphic.
